Mark Heard - All She Wanted Was Love lyrics

He tried to open her eyes to the big wide world He was teaching her feelings that can't be taught Between his art museums and his politics He left her somewhere in a tangled thought And when he calls she don't answer When he comes 'round she's not home She bears another kind of burden She's got a mind of her own Hey - all she wanted was love He could smother her days in word bouquets
